Visuals for my talk on openstreetmaps at OpenData conference Namur. 23/2/2015 It looks like slideshare actually screws up the centering of text when I upload it, that's not the case localy. I will fix this and reupload asap.

3. Strive for progress
Not perfection.

4. Is the NEW gold
If Open Data

5. Is a goldmine.
Then OpenStreetMap data

6. Over 554(*) Gigabyte (GB) = 594 852 970 500 Bytes
How much gold exactly?
* Growing every second
“The sum of the personal interest of all”

7. Mining it means
Getting your hands dirty

8. Openstreetmap data
Works like a swiss knife

9. API
• OverPass
• Nominatim
• Routing engines
Buildings blocks
• Tile servers ( renderd, tirex, tileman, mapnik )
• Foreign API's ( Open / Private , webservices )
• Libraries ( LeafLet , OpenLayers )
Unfold the right tool to leverage
Powertools
Gis software (QGIS)•
Editors ( JOSM )•
PosgreSQL / spatial enabled DB's•

10. Be the Chef
Not the receipe.

11. Visualize OSM derived data
Differently

12. Events @ location
On a timemap

13. Cook up OSM with
Realtime traffic data

14. Visualize # shops
As data statistics.

15. Slice
… like a masterchef.

16. Fire hydrants.

17. Emphasize specifics

18. Railway.

19. Imagination is the
Highest form of research.

20. OSM data as scenery
In a Flight simulator

21. Need a bathroom break?

22. Can't hold it no more?
Find the nearest exit!

23. There is more
Under the hood

24. We have data suitable for
Software parsing.

25. Coordinates are nice digits
But they don't tell us much

26. Translate to coordinate...
… and reverse: geocoding.

27. The raw data is like LEGO
You can never overplay it.

28. “When you open up the data,
there’s no limit to what people can
do. It engages the imagination of
citizens in building the city.”
-David Miller, Mayor of Toronto.
Toronto 2.0: Data Sharing Source
The Globe and Mail, 09-01-31

29. Open systems can
make heroes.
Not just scapegoats.

30. Open Systems Create
New Markets.

31. INTELLIGENCE + IMAGINATION

32. Mobile is the new brain

33. To build your imagination

34. You need (skilled) people

35. To create solutions
That serve people

36. With OSM data is the future
Combining external input

37. What you can do now.

38. We want YOU to contribute

39. Analyse ...
And identify grey spots.

43. Use data to improve itself.
Gardening OSM

44. We want you to USE it

45. Consume ( build stuff )
• Commercial (for Startups, as alternative, supporting role )
• Academic ( research, statistics, educational )
• Government ( improving GIS services, promote OD use )
Care (give a stuff)
• Promote use :
Government
•
Try / Use it!
Contribute (donate stuff)
• Map / Validate
•
People
Businesses
•
•
• Allow & Suggest, encourage usage
Garden
• Invest ( resources, money, time )
Dare to experiment (mock it up!)•

46. • Legislative
• Cultural
• Too much data
• Real time vs historic
• Definitions / references
• Limited skills and over specialisation
Some challenges ahead
• Privacy

47. Privacy challenges

48. Data for Mr. Government
Benefits of OpenStreetMap

49. It’s hard for
governments to
experiment.

50. There’s lots of rules.

51. “No one was ever promoted
for disclosing information.”
-US Government Employee.

52. Open Systems Allow
External Contribution.

53. Open Systems Make
Failure Free.

with (y)our data ??
